Scaramouche

Scaramouche Rafael Sabatini - Scaramouche tells the story of an unlikely hero during the French Revolution. Andre-Louis Moreau, a lawyer, is transformed from cynic to idealist as circumstances force him to change sides several times during the conflict in France. He becomes a revolutionary, politician, and fencing-master, confounding his enemies with his powerful orations and swordsmanship. Rafael Sabatini's 1921 novel has been adapted numerous times, most famously in 1952 with Stewart Granger in the title role.
